Hello, I'm new to excel, I'm trying a simple formula (=40-C3-0.2)
& I'm wondering if it is possible to hide the result of my formula until I had added an amount into cell C3, as it results in showing 39.8 until imput another number into C3, I would like the result to remain blank until I put a number in C3. Thanks for any help. |

Try
=(40-C3-0.2)*(C3<"") which will show zero until there is a value in C3 or =IF(C3="","",40-C3-0.2) which will show blank -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom Excel 95 - Excel 2007 Northwest Excel Solutions www.nwexcelsolutions.com "It is a good thing to follow the first law of holes; if you are in one stop digging."

You can make that cell look empty with a formula like:
=if(c3="","",40-C3-0.2) Or you could even add a little validity check: =if(isnumber(c3),40-C3-0.2,"") Sammy wrote: Hello, I'm new to excel, I'm trying a simple formula (=40-C3-0.2) & I'm wondering if it is possible to hide the result of my formula until I had added an amount into cell C3, as it results in showing 39.8 until imput another number into C3, I would like the result to remain blank until I put a number in C3.

=IF(C6="","",C6)
=IF(C6="","",C6+30) What the formula does is return a blank-looking cell if C6 has no data, otherwise return the calculated value.
